Thank you Duncan and Raghu!
Absolutely love this podcast and all the be here now network podcast . Brings me so much peace and perspective while I drive and work. 💗Ram Ram.
Hosting
Personally, I look forward to hearing Raghu’s introductions on the Ram Dass podcast. I wouldn’t take it personally, that some object. Since I’ve been listening a while, It feels like Raghu brought the gift of these lectures to us in the first place. And it lends structure. The Leper/Banana story showed Raghu is quite self critical, all the while doing his best to spread the love.
Warms the heart
Really enjoyed the last episode with Ram Dev and hearing stories about Ram Dass and Trungpa Rinpoche. Thank you for the teachings! Beautiful quotes
